摘要
An approach to fast entanglement generation based on Rydberg dephasing of collective excitations (spin waves) in large, optically thick atomic ensembles is proposed. Long-range 1/r(3) atomic interactions are induced by microwave mixing of opposite-parity Rydberg states. The required long coherence times are achieved via four-photon excitation and readout of long wavelength spin waves. The dephasing mechanism is shown to have favorable, approximately exponential, scaling for entanglement generation.
